driving lights on my 99 frontend

with it being winter im looking for more light. I live in the sticks where the painted lines on the roads don't exist. Since I like to outdrive the headlights it was time for an upgrade.

I made a mould. This first piece is made of fiberglass. for now it's just primed. Ill shoot it this wekend to match the car better. the lights are hella high beams with an H9 connector. I plan to go HID with them in the future. I got teh idea from a Corvette C5-R.

What do you all think?

I gues if you have to have that darn plate holder, this is as good a use of it as anything. Nice work!

IMHO, the stock spoiler doesn't look right with the '99 front end. The hood and rims look good with that front end. If I had that front I would either shave the (rear)spoiler or (most likely if I had the license plate holder) find the chrome plate that says RX-7 (BMW style) and get the stock '99 fog lights and convert them to driving lights and get the '99 rear spolier...I don't like the mismatch, but I do like the uniqueness of what you did with the plate holder...I'm retard at times though.

I like the idea of using the plate holder for more lights. I also so this on a corvette and I thought it looked really sharp.

Very clever, gives it kind of a "monobrow' look!
